Poetry Slam Movement

Famous quotes containing the words poetry, slam and/or movement:

    “That was a way of putting it not very satisfactory:
    A periphrastic study in a worn-out poetical fashion,
    Leaving one still with the intolerable wrestle
    With words and meanings. The poetry does not matter”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “to slam the door on all the days she’ll stay the same
    and never ask why and never think who to ask,
    to slam the door and rip off her orange blouse.
    Father, father, I wish I were dead.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Every little movement has a meaning all its own.”
    —Otto Harbach (1873–1963)
